A method allowing a clear separation of the different variants of desialylated alpha 1‐acid glycoprotein (orosomucoid) has been developed using isoelectric focusing in immobilized pH gradients, supplemented with 8 M urea and 2 % v/v 2‐mercaptoethanol. Immunoblotting with two antibody‐steps afforded high sensitivity and permitted the detection of about 700 pg of alpha 1‐acid glycoprotein in a 20 μL plasma sample diluted 1:28 672. A one year old bloodstain, kept at room temperature, could easily be phenotyped.
